Description
By the late 1800's, most of the western United States had been settled, ranches and farms developed, communities established, and roads and railroads constructed. But maps of the time show that a vast region of Nevada - including the beautiful Pahrump Valley in southern Nye County remained largely unsettled, still very much a frontier,
This book, illustrated with many of the best photographs available, traces the history of the valley, beginning with its prehistoric inhabitants, the Southern Paiute Indians, and European explorers.
This is the story of a remarkable group of individuals - rich in the tradition of frontier enthusiasm for the future - whose hard work has created a vibrant community
